Falling pregnant with Lochie was a
total surprise, so when he was born I was relieved that he was healthy and gorgeous a good sleeper and a good feeder. {Better than the girls, thank goodness} As an added bonus it turns out he has a sweet disposition an endlessly happy nature and a smile that can light up the world. He beams at everyone he sees and people coo over him constantly. He is a complete ray of sunshine.
So fittingly when I found this cake I knew it was the one.
Isn't it adorable. Boyish, babyish and very sunny! Unfortunately I have a strict policy about fondant icing. {I'm too chicken to use it!} Add to that the fact that I only started to make it at 8pm the night before and well ... lets just say the whole thing turned out incredibly average! The weather was cool and overcast and the birthday boy had a cold so it wasn't the perfectly sunny affair I had in mind but true to form Lochie was still incredibly happy about the whole thing.
Here is my half finished version. I ran out of yellow icing, couldn't find my little toy aeroplane and the orange chocolate rays didn't even make it to the cake they're still in the fridge!
But Lochie loved it.
